Now hold on to your seat as the original libraries on 5 CDs sold for over $4000.00 (1), just think about that for a moment. Remember that when the original library was introduced the VSTs and Virtual Instruments we have today were just a musicians Sci Fi dream. You had to consider the limited amount of RAM (around 4mb) that was available in the early Akai hardware samplers. These original libraries produced in 1993 and were delivered on data CD. These were ground breaking in the sense that they were among the first attempts to provide composers with samples of a real performing orchestra that captured the emotion and characteristic sound of world class musicians. Many of us familiar with the early days of sampling remember the excitement that surrounded the original Miroslav Vitous Symphonic Orchestra library. IK Multimedia with their introduction of Miroslav Philharmonik 2 has made this task a little bit easier. The sheer abundance of choices can be overwhelming. It seems everywhere you look there are new orchestral sample libraries and instruments being introduced.
